    Everything from the staff to the stay. Great value. The kaiseki dinner was great. Staff deserves all the praise for being so fantastic

    Futons are futons (but I would recommend it anyway for the experience)

    Everything! It's a traditional inn experience with all the staff wearing Yukata and being extremely nice. The room was quite big with separate toilets and a huge wardrobe. It was quiet at the time of our stay. You can use Yukatas in the hotel included in the price They have public baths that we enjoyed a lot (on the top floor). The dinner we had was fantastic with many options (I took beef with Wagyu that came with 7 other plates of vegetables, miso soups, tofu, rice, etc''' My partner took the sushi option that was delicious as well and plenty to eat).

    As mentioned by the hotel its central location implies some noise from early morning. Nothing too much however. There is also quute some light in the room from early morning vut I guess that is normal for a ryokan.

    It was quite close to the Kyoto station. The staff was very kind and very helpful. Their english were also great. The room was spacious especially in comparison to other hotels. We did not try the onsen or breakfast.

    Nothing to say.

    We spent a wonderful time at Ryokufuso, everything was perfect. Access to the Ryokan was super easy, it was like 8 minutes walk from the train. It's in the center, therefore many possibilities of transportation. Dinner and breakfast were perfect, we had the choice between Japanese and Western breakfast, both were delicious. Room was clean and well designed. The hot bath tied the bow. Thanks a lot, we had a great time with the wonderful staff.

    Honestly nothing, if I had to be super super nitpicky then it would be the fact that it takes 20 minutes to go to main shopping area by bus. But if that's a long time to you you need to reconsider your privilege. Also like 5 minutes from Kyoto station.

    Seriously best hotel we booked in all of Japan, and we booked 3 before this. Staff went the extra extra mile, very clean and authentic Japanese experience. It was also the biggest hotel we've been to. Location was good from the station, to the main shopping district is a little far but overall amazing experience. If you don't mind travelling like 20 minutes by bus to the shopping district (we didnt) then it's phenomenal location

    Was a little bit of a walk from the train station with bags which could easily be fixed by a taxi ride vice the walk.

    The property was beautifully presented with modern fittings throughout and an Onsen overlooking the city. And the staff were amazing and were able to speak English if needed.
